I take a class that is  a 30  minutes yoga class in a 125 to 130 degree sauna. I have been afraid to wear my Fitbit in the class. Would this high of heat damage it?

The heat should not damage it, but if it gets too hot, the tracker will shut down displaying a thermometer. 

As for the humidity i don't know.

A warm welcome to the Community @Mhn and @Rich_Laue thanks for stopping by.

As our friend here mentioned, the tracker might get too hot at the moment of being at the sauna or the humidity can damage your display. I recommend taking the tracker off and just manually log the activity. To manually log this activity, you just need to do the following from a computer:

1. Go to the Activities page by clicking Log at the top of your dashboard, then click Activities. 
2. Under Log Activities, click a common activity or search for your activity in the search box. 
3. Select your activity from the search results. If the activity is not in our system, you have the option to create your own activity by clicking the Create custom activity text that will appear below the search field. 
4. Enter the duration, distance (if applicable), and start time of your activity. You have the option to manually enter the number of calories burned here if you'd like to. 
5. Click Log Activity. Your activity will now be visible and editable in the Logged Activities area. 

Catch you later. Woman Happy
